The Holmes was my first mid/new school bike.

shite where is all this hardware popping up from   ???

Great frames Jacob. Very nice. My second dirtbike was a purple one with thes S Y M stickers on it.

I would like a platformed dirtbike. That is the only 1" frame I dont have ... apart from a mad dog ... and a menstural cycle ... and the 24" that wasnt the widow maker .... OK, maybe not the ONLY one, ha ha.

In an S&M add at the time they were talking about being able to get what ever you want from S&M. They said that "When Ruben wanted a platform on a dirtbike, we made him one". It implied that it was for Ruben Castilo, who had just started Homless bikes with a frame that was just like a dirtbike with a platform. The truth was, the Ruben in the add was just a local kid who wanted a platform.
